Cellular Prion Protein Mediates α‐Synuclein Uptake, Localization, and Toxicity In Vitro and In Vivo
Abstract
Background: The cellular prion protein (PrP C) is a membrane‐bound, multifunctional protein mainly expressed in neuronal tissues. Recent studies indicate that the native trafficking of PrP C can be misused to internalize misfolded amyloid beta and α‐synuclein (aSyn) oligomers. Objectives: We define PrP C's role in internalizing misfolded aSyn in α‐synucleinopathies and identify further involved proteins. Methods: We performed comprehensive behavioral studies on four transgenic mouse models (ThySyn and ThySynPrP00, TgM83 and TgMPrP00) at different ages. We developed PrP C‐(over)‐expressing cell models (cell line and primary cortical neurons), used confocal laser microscopy to perform colocalization studies, applied mass spectrometry to identify interactomes, and determined disassociation constants using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy. Results: Behavioral deficits (memory, anxiety, locomotion, etc.), reduced lifespans, and higher oligomeric aSyn levels were observed in PrP C‐expressing mice (ThySyn and TgM83), but not in homologous Prnp ablated mice (ThySynPrP00 and TgMPrP00). PrP C colocalized with and facilitated aSyn (oligomeric and monomeric) internalization in our cell‐based models. Glimepiride treatment of PrP C‐overexpressing cells reduced aSyn internalization in a dose‐dependent manner. SPR analysis showed that the binding affinity of PrP C to monomeric aSyn was lower than to oligomeric aSyn. Mass spectrometry‐based proteomic studies identified clathrin in the immunoprecipitates of PrP C and aSyn. SPR was used to show that clathrin binds to recombinant PrP, but not aSyn. Experimental disruption of clathrin‐coated vesicles significantly decreased aSyn internalization. Conclusion: PrP C's native trafficking can be misused to internalize misfolded aSyn through a clathrin‐based mechanism, which may facilitate the spreading of pathological aSyn. Disruption of aSyn‐PrP C binding is, therefore, an appealing therapeutic target in α‐synucleinopathies. © 2021 The Authors.

Similar to amyloid-β oligomers, α-synuclein oligomers interact with PrPc; α-synuclein interacts with PrPc to induce cognitive impairment through metabotropic glutamate receptors, and blockage of these glutamate receptor-mediated signaling events restores cognitive deficits.

“Alternative mechanisms to internalize misfolded aSyn are possible, including tunneling nanotubes or exosome release.(55,56) In the future we plan to confirm the PrP-clathrin-mediated internalization using in vivo models and translational studies.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
